Score 97/100 · James Suckling, Jul 2019
This has such complex, fresh and pristine florals with lilacs, frangipani and lemon blossom, intermingled with very ripe peaches, pears, lychees and melon. Plenty of spice, too. The palate is super smooth, creamy and seamlessly carved with spiced white peaches, holding long, silky, sweet and pure. This is so impressive. Drink or hold.
